The conservatives are livid.When Mccain gave his speech on the environment,he embraced global warming which is against their values.They believe global warming is a hoax and an excuse by the democrats to impose federal regulations.They believe the energy crisis can only be solved through ingenuity,innovation, personal responsiblityor a discovery eg nuclear use.Their line of thought is humanbeings have nothing to do with the environment.The democrats believe federal regulations too should be imposed too.

Mccain seems to be on the centre when it comes to issues but he need the right wing to win.Thats the base of the republican party.
Obama had to move to the left to win the democratic nomination.His waiting for Hillary to drop out to come back to the centre.
Mccain seems confused and as Obama puts it he has lost his bearing.If he takes a conservative stand, he is seen to be advocating George Bush failed policies.If he moves to the centre,the Democratic National Commitee{sp} follows him reminding Americans he is a republican.
He confessed to know nothing about the economy but he has read Greenspan book.(LOL)
